Whaled


Smash!

You've been squished by a whale!
Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know you did something really silly.

You have been whaled for: You restored incorrect information that says power was out in Goa for only 15 minutes on the Cyclone Tauktae article, which I had edited out earlier with a reason. There are no sources to support that number, not even the linked articles. As it's likely a good faith edit, instead of risking it turning into an edit war, I thought I'd explain here. "15 minutes" comes from this paragraph: "The chief minister, however, also added that the power supply inside hospitals has not been affected. "In GMC [Goa Medical College], there was a power cut for 15 minutes, but there was power back up. No shortage of oxygen," he said." GMC is a single place in Goa, where most Covid-19 patients are treated, which is why it was mentioned. Most of the rest of Goa had power outages for way longer. We just got out power restored an hour ago where I live, so well over 50 hours. But you don't have to take my word for it - here and here. Brc2000 (talk) 15:19, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I put a source there. ~~ 🌀𝚂𝙲𝚂 𝙲𝙾𝚁𝙾𝙽𝙰🌀 15:38, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Neither of those sources supports the statement "Power went out in Goa for 15 minutes, before being restored shortly afterward," which make sit seem that the entrety of Goa was back to normal after a short period of time, when the reality is completely different. One of them only mentions the power being restored in Goa Medical College, and the other doesn't mention a timeframe at all.

Also, if the two sources I provided aren't considered reliable enough for some reason, here's an article from one of the sites you used as a source - https://www.news18.com/news/india/damaged-by-cyclone-tauktae-power-supply-to-be-restored-in-entire-goa-by-may-19-3750281.html Brc2000 (talk) 16:07, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Notice about a new WikiProject Proposal

Hey Super Cyclonic Storm Corona. I recently proposed an idea for a WikiProject for 2021. You seem to have a strong interest in the Cyclone Tauktae article, which of course is a cyclone happening in 2021. So I thought I would drop by and let you know about the proposal. Feel free to drop your opinions here: Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/2021. Elijahandskip (talk) 19:50, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ITN recognition for Cyclone Tauktae

On 19 May 2021, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article Cyclone Tauktae, which you updated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. SpencerT•C 20:04, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback granted

Hi Super Cyclonic Storm Corona. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have temporarily enabled rollback on your account until 2021-06-25. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Anarchyte (talk) 16:38, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats on getting Rollback! I'm sure you'll do great with it! ~ 🌀HurricaneCovid🌀 17:36, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@HurricaneCovid: Thank you! I've immediately started using RB since I saw this, it is so much easier than using Twinkle or RedWarn. ~~ 🌀𝚂𝙲𝚂 𝙲𝙾𝚁𝙾𝙽𝙰🌀 17:37, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah. I got it just a few days ago too, but L&D had already told me how easy it is. ~ 🌀HurricaneCovid🌀 20:39, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

You are an administrator, right?

Some user keeps posting a vandalism on page for Angelina Ballerina The Next Steps. (S)he won't give up.

What can we do? I heard that (s)he's an anonymous user, so I don't know if we can block him/her.

Vandalism is so feeding me up.

Thanks in advance!
